Get a single Central NAC auth profile by UUID.
AI agents call get_auth_profile to retrieve information from API-Central without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool retrieves authentication profile configuration data by identifier. No data creation, modification, deletion, or external code execution occurs. This is a standard read operation with minimal risk; misuse would only expose existing network access control policy information.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_auth_profile' and description 'Get a single Central NAC auth profile by UUID' indicate retrieval of existing data without modification or side effects.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get a single Central NAC auth profile by UUID. It is categorised as a Read tool in the API-Central MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the API-Central MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_auth_profile: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches API-Central. Nothing to install.
get_auth_profile is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_auth_profile rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_auth_profile. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
get_auth_profile is provided by the API-Central MCP server (secure-ssid/centralmcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
